IMPORTANT SPRING FLIGHT UPDATE

The health and safety of our veterans has always been the primary concern of everyone at Stars and Stripes Honor Flight. The Honor Flight Network has consulted with the Centers for Disease Control, and has determined that due to the unpredictable nature of the Coronavirus (or COVID-19) outbreak, all March, April, and May Honor Flights from all states are being postponed and will be rescheduled at some point later this year, under the guidance of the Honor Flight Network.

Testimonials

“Somewhere along in the process of guardian training, someone noted that this was a life-changing experience. I’d argue with anyone that was an understatement. As a former EMT of 10 years and current active firefighter, I think I’ve experienced more than most people, both positive and negative, people at their best, people at their worst. This flight humbled me in ways I cannot even begin to place into words. It changed me in ways I cannot even begin to describe…Spending the day with my father on this flight was something neither of us will ever forget. Having the opportunity to honor him and the other veterans, to interact and hear the stories, to be part of their experience in Washington was beyond life-changing. These two words seem so completely inadequate, but thank you.”

– Bill, Sept. 15, 2012 Guardian

Testimonials

“My Dad was overwhelmed and totally happy. It was like a playground for these very special veterans. A playground filled with all of their special friends that shared the common “secret” that only they knew…what it was like to live through those times and those events. They came together with an instant familiarity that allowed them to “fast backward” to the war and all that it meant to them. They were relating on a visceral level. It was beyond description to witness and play a small part in it.”

— Pam, Nashotah

Testimonials

“This whole day changed my life… the people who organize and work behind the scenes are selfless and amazing, and the camaraderie amongst the other veterans is like coming home!!! We were absolutely blown away by the reception we received at the airport, and the recognition that was missing 47 years ago, was replaced by cheering and hugs and kisses! People do care about the veterans, and it was so humbling… Thank You SSHF!!!”

— Art Kallie
